Pandit Nikhil Banerjee

... auf dem weltweit bekanntesten der indischen Instrumente, die Sitar. Dieser herausragende Musikmeister ist bis heute fuer eine Vielzahl von Liebhabern der indisch-klassischen Musik, in Musikerkreisen Indiens und weit darueber hinaus ein legendaeres Vorbild fuer die Interpretation der indischen Raga-s im Instrumentalspiel.

Nikhil Banerjee (14. Oktober 1931 - 27. Januar 1986) wurde in Kolkatta geboren und stammt aus einer Bramahnenfamilie. In seinem Spiel gelingt es ihm, mit einer brillanten Finger- und Anschlagtechnik, einem Hoechstmass an Sicherheit fuer schwierige Coloraturen, dem Hoerer die komplexen Ragaskalen in einer Leichtigkeit und Transparenz naeher zu bringen - in einer ausgepraegten Orientierung Nikhil Banerjees auf die traditionelle Form der nordindischen Klassik, der Hindustani-Musik.

Nikhil Banerjee*: âMusic is the best form of art. â Music has two different sides. One has to entertain music. The other side is: Through music find out the supreme truth or find out the supreme soal...â

Die indischen Ragas werden nach dem s.g. Thaatsystem des indischen Musikwissenschaftlers V.N. Bhakthande klassifiziert und zu bestimmten Tages- und Nachtzeiten gespielt.

Die Sitarlegende Pandit Nikhil Banerjee fuehrt uns mit dem Morgenraga Nat Bhairav aus dem Bhairav-Thaat und weiteren Tondukumenten durch den 24-stuendigen Zeitzyklus verschiedener Ragaskalen: Raga Deshi, Chandra Kauns, Bhatiyar und mit Raga Pilu im Thumri-Stil ein Beispiel der leichten indischen Klassik (Indian Light Classic).

In his play Banerjee succeeded with a brilliant finger and notice technique and a maximum of security for difficult Coloratures to bring the complex Raga scales to the ears of the listeners lightly and by transparency. – Nikhil Banerjee was oriented on the traditional form of the North Indian Classical period, the Hindustani music.

Nikhil Banerjee*: “Music is the best form of art. – Music has two different sides. One has to entertain music. The other side is: Through music find out the supreme truth or find out the supreme soul...”

The Indian Ragas are classified according to the Thaat system of the Indian music scientist V.N. Bhakthande and are played at certain day and night times.

The Sitar legend Pandit Nikhil Banerjee leads us through the 24 hour time cycle by different Raga scales: the morning raga Nat Bhairav of the Bhairav Thaat and further sound documents, e.g. Raga Deshi, Chandra Kauns, Bhatiyar and Raga Pilu in the Thumri style, which is an example of the Indian Light Classical music.
